In August, 2006, S/V Toketie set out from Victoria, British Columbia and sailed South to Mexico, on to French Polynesia, Niue and Tonga following the well beaten path known as the 'coconut run' to New Zealand. In 2009 we sailed N to Fiji then on to New Caledonia en route to Australia! Toketie is now back home in British Columbia after a long passage via the N Pacific Ocean.

Back in Opua!
Well, the Toketie crew are back in Opua on the mooring. The weather is typical for fall in NZ, heavy rain and strong winds as low after low move across the Tasman Sea and hit the islands. But we are getting things organized and in a couple of weeks we will be looking for a 'weather window' to escape North to warmer climates! I know, going North doesn't sound right but you have to remember that everything is upside down on the other side of the world!
